INSTALLING WHEEL KIT
The Craftsman Wheel Kit was designed to greatly improve the portability of your generator.
Drain gas and oil before assembling the portability
kit. Failure to do so will cause damage to the engine.
•Place generator on level ground; drain all gas and oil from the engine (see engine manual for correct procedure).
•Place a 1” thick x 1’ square piece of wood on the ground in front of the engine. With the help of another person, tilt the generator and rest the recoil starter on the wood. NOTE: This will support the gasoline engine during assembly and make assembly easier.
•Using two screws (8) and two lock nuts (9) install the wheel bracket (5) on the bottom right side of the engine support.
•a. Remove the locknut on the bottom of the isolator.
b.Position wheel bracket onto the existing screw, lining up holes in bracket with holes in frame. Secure with the removed locknut.
c.Place screw (8) into second hole and secure with locknut (9).
•Tap the axle cap (6) on the end of the axle (2), without the hole, using a hammer.
•Slide one wheel (1) onto the axle with the ex- tended hub pointed away from axle cap.
•Slide one axle spacer (3) down against the wheel
(1).
•Slide the axle (2) through the holes in the wheel brackets (5).
•Install the second axle spacer (3) then the second wheel (1) with the extended hub facing inward.
•Place the flat washer (7) against the wheel bushing and slide the cotter pin (4) through the drilled hole of the axle (2). Bend the cotter pin (4) to secure in place.
•Tighten lock nuts on wheel brackets.
•Line up the handle brackets with the holes in the frame near the receptacle end of the generator.
•Install hex screws (10) and lock nuts (9). Tighten with a ½” wrench.
•With another person helping, carefully tilt the generator to operating position.
•Install louvered heat deflector to the muffler using four
IMPORTANT: To prevent damage or possible hazards, do not orient deflector in any other position.
